Well you’re in luck because the Iowa Wild and the Iowa Energy have some crazy good deals and events that you won’t want to miss out on. (Most are under $20!)

Whether you’re a sports fan or not, you’ll find something to get excited about at an Iowa Wild or Iowa Energy Game.

Lindsay Smith of the Iowa Energy marketing department clued me in on what makes games so great. “The games are so much fun, a lot of the guys on the team actually play for the Grizzles so you’re getting to see professional athletes play for a low cost,” Smith said. “The games are just super high energy and competitive so if you’re someone like me who loves sports and competition, these are fun games watch!”

And even if you’re not a basketball fan, Smith says there’s still fun to be had. “There’s always tons giveaways like promotions at the doors and Chick-Fil-A coupons given out throughout the game. And if you don’t like sports, the guys playing are normally pretty cute.”

So college students, here’s your guide to the best ways to experience the Des Moines sports scene on a budget!
